I agree. It seems whoever is maintaining the slapd package has dropped the ball pretty spectacularly, both with documentation and install configuration. I tried last summer to learn enough about packaging that I could be helpful in situations like this, but I didn't get very far. And with school in session and me teaching six classes, I won't have time to learn something new until winter break.
